See Overturn.
Hmm. Powerful anti-Thoughtseize tech, but again not as powerful as Leyline of Sanctity.
At first I felt the first mode is undercosted, compared to Aethertow. But then I saw Azorius Charm and Sweep Away and Whisk Away (and Excommunicate), so I guess this is probably fine? It's sensible to give the card an alternate mode that's more useful in the mid-to-late-game, anyway.
You're right, it's not as powerful. I was just fiddling with the general design idea.
I'm not great at determining costs, but everything there that has a similar effect either costs more or is slightly more flexible, so maybe it's okay?
Thanks for commenting.
Heh, yeah, sorry, I do jump straight to costing comments, when that's not usually the most sensible thing to say on a new card!
I do like the way you just instinctively thought to give the card an alternate usage for later in the game than the first mode that was the inspiration for it.
Thank you. :)
